A behind-the-scenes video has revealed the intense training regime that the Star Wars: The Last Jedi cast goes through in order to prepare for action.

In the video, we get a sneak peek into the training regime that prepares Daisy Ridley for her role as lightsaber wielding Rey. Ridley is seen working alongside writer/director Rian Johnson and the film’s talented stunt team as she pushes herself to the physical limit.

“I was planning to teach her this whole routine in three days, but she surprisingly learnt everything in an hour and a half. She is a very quick learner,” says assistant fight coordinator Liang Yang.

In addition to Ridley, the video features interviews and training clips with Actress Gwendoline Christie (Phasma), as well as, John Boyega (Finn), Kelly Marie Tran (Rose), and Adam Driver (Kylo Ren).
